Issue #13 (March 1, 1958) Conventions and Clinics

Jim Norman, co-author with Frank LaDue of "Two Seconds of Freedom" returned to civilian life following a stint with the Coast Guard - stationed in Hawaii.
George hired Jim to take charge of the Nissen sales office in Canada. Of course,
before Jim found his way to Canada, George made sure Jim was included at a special trampoline clinic held in Gladbrook, Iowa. 
Here are some more great photos of George Nissen and Jim Norman, Bob Bevenour and
Art Kroening (who piloted the Mosquito airplane).


Don't miss the special article (bottom left of the page) on the world famous Dutch gymnast Klass Boot, and his son Klass Boot, Jr.
Klass, Jr. is given credit as the man who introduced the trampoline to Holland.
Now for the monthly fun newsy-news among the Nissen employees:
